How to Make the Best Roasted Potatoes
Start by preheating your oven to 400° and line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy clean up.
Wash your potatoes and pat dry with paper towel, in half, lengthwise. Melt ¼ cup of butter or use equal amounts of olive oil.
Place potatoes cut side down on pan evenly spaced. Brush with butter (or olive oil) completely top and bottom. Sprinkle both sides with sea salt, a course salt works well for these.

Lifting up the cut side of the potato, place a small sprig of rosemary under the potatoe and press down. Repeat with the rest of the potatoes.
Roast in 400° oven for about 30-40 minutes until tender, testing with a fork or knife. If it slips in without resistance they are done.
NOTE | If you are cooking something else in the oven at the same time, you may roast the potatoes at the same temperature, simply adjust your cooking time up or down and watch to make sure they don’t get too browned. Potatoes are pretty forgiving.
Remove from pan to plate and serve immediately! These potatoes are delicious with many dishes, but I especially love them with Marinated Flank Steak and Barbecue Beef Brisket.
